From father to son, the blood runs thin, ooohhh
see the faces frozen still against the wind
The seam is split
The coal-face cracked
The lines are long
There's no going back
Through hands of steel
And heart of stone
Our labour day
Has come and gone
They leave me holdin' on
In Red Hill Town
See the lights go down on
Hanging on
You're all that's left to hold on to
I'm still waiting
I'm hanging on
You're all that's left to hold on to.
The glass is cut
The bottle run dry
Our love runs cold
In the caverns of the night
We're wounded by fear
Injured in doubt
I can lose myself
You I can't live without
Yeah, you keep me holdin' on
In Red Hill Town
See the lights go down on
Hanging on
You're all that's left to hold on to
I'm still waiting
I'm hanging on
You're all that's left to hold on to
On to
We scorch the earth
Set fire to the sky
And we stooped so low
To reach so high
A link is lost
The chain undone
We wait all day
For night to come
And it comes like a hunter child
I'm hanging on
You're all that's left to hold on to
I'm still waiting
I'm hanging on
You're all that's left to hold on to
Love______
slowly stripped away
Love______
has seen its better day
Hanging on______
Lights go down on Red Hill
Lights go down on Red Hill
Lights go down on Red Hill's Town
Lights go down on Red Hill Town
